Tens of thousands gathered in Novi Sad, Serbia, on November 1, 2025, to commemorate the first anniversary of a railway station disaster that claimed 16 lives when a canopy collapsed. The memorial began at 11:52 AM, marking the tragedy’s exact time, with mourners placing flowers and candles at the site. The event, which symbolizes ongoing corruption, has sparked regular student-led protests demanding transparency and early elections. Many participants, including marchers from Belgrade and Novi Pazar, undertook significant journeys to honor the victims, with some walking 100km over 16 days, one for each victim.
